The CoE Map provides a clear and interactive overview of a respective member's crisis management capabilities across various key areas. It helps potential secondees understand the national structures in place, as well as the secondment processes that might otherwise be difficult to navigate. For CoE members, it offers a snapshot of systems and policies from their own country, across all involved agencies and ministries, and from other countries, providing inspiration for possible collaborations and matchmaking opportunities.
How the CoE Map Supports Secondees and CoE Members
The CoE Map addresses several common challenges faced by both CoE members and potential secondees. It gives users a simple way to understand the complexities of secondment, recruitment, and training processes, which can often feel overwhelming or unclear. By making this information accessible, the CoE Map ensures that everyone involved in crisis management has a better understanding of the systems and opportunities available to them.
Looking ahead, the CoE plans to keep developing the CoE Map to include new features and information. The goal is to make the tool even more useful for members and secondees, and to continue using it to strengthen international partnerships and share best practices in civilian crisis management.
